It's a bit of an anomaly on the record.

Deffo the hit shoehorned into a more authentic collection of songs.

I do love the way she breathily trills.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:08

This is a Dolly Parton song.

You can tell instantly.

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:08

Obviously a Dolly song.

It's the terrible guitar played all over it.

Track 4 - I Never Did Sing You a Love Song.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:11

Waltz.

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:11

This is one of my favourite songs of all time.

The sense of some mysterious dream-bound usurper of love is very magical to me.

The River Man.

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:12

The lyrics describe an apparent harmony of love, but the final line's the stinger...

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:13

I never did sing you a love song
I only sang phrases in time
I never did write you a sonnet
I just laid my cards down in rhymes
Up and down the river, so many boats to ride
Yet precious few deliver the goods that we need to survive

I never spoke falsely or crossly
I never put tears in your eyes
And you never shattered my lonely heart
You never deceived me with lies
And yet somehow I seem to recall I stirred in my sleep for a while
Dreaming of a river man exchanging my life for a smile

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:14

Track 5 - The Work Song.

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:14

Exchanging my life for a smile.

by Guest Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:14

Kate McGarrigle

Is that the evil or the good one?

by Nightjar Fri 26 Jun 2020 - 19:14

This was my favourite song when I was 4. yes
